Preppy Cardigan for 18" Dolls
Smart enough for school, yet casual enough for weekend shopping trips it’s hard to imagine an occasion when your doll wouldn’t want to wear this fun, preppy-style cardigan.
The front and sleeves feature an easy to knit two color pattern. The back of the cardigan is ribbed to ensure a snug yet easy fit.
The pattern includes several options: a sleeveless vest for warmer days, sleeves for cooler days and a choice of lengths for the bodice of the cardigan.
With so many options in one pattern, this is one cardigan that you will knit again and again.
Please note:
The two-color pattern is easy to knit even if you have never knitted with more than one color yarn at a time. The Preppy Cardigan PDF pattern includes a full step by step photo tutorial, together with a 6 page printable summary. The summary has check boxes against each row so you can easily check your progress.
